Hi!  I’m Heather, the blogger behind This Joyful Life. 

I’m so happy you stopped by!

 

I’m a glass-is-half-full fearless adventurer living in a glass-is-half-empty world.  My husband and I live in the middle of nowhere and I rely on him for my daily dose of laughter.  We are now empty nesters so we get to have all the fun together.

 

I’m a lifelong vegetarian who loves to cook healthy meals that are quick and easy.  Who has time for more?  I have cooked professionally in a vegan/vegetarian kitchen, but my real passion is bringing joy into your life with healthy recipes, tips for a healthier life, and practical tips for everyday living for home and family.
